Actually power-of-2 is 99% correct but at least one big name OS doesn't stick to it. The grown-up version of the AS/400 is usually configured with 520 byte sectors. The additional bytes are used in the AS/400's weird disk usage strategy. BTW, I found out a bit more from my colleague where that comes from. Apparently the designer thought at the time (and he's now realised his mistake) that disk drives were going to be superceded by solid memory and decided to design storage accordingly. Hence the file system is more like heap management. -- Andrue Cope [TeamB] [Bicester, Uk] http://info.borland.com/newsgroups/guide.html
